Has anyone ever bought tickets from tickets for charity? If so, is the donation portion tax deductible? Thanks! Also, does Ticketmaster release tickets at certain intervals (ex: release a certain percentage of seats every 24 hours.)I was on the facebook presale for 2 hours and couldn't get tickets so I had to buy the blue prismatic pack in the nosebleed section (balcony.) Today I tried for and hour and 45 minutes and still nothing (for her second Boston show). Ticketmaster stinks! I was ready right at 10 and didn't stop clicking "search again" but kept getting that annoying "high demand" result. I tried so much that I got blocked. I know I should just be thankful that I am going once but I can't help but feel a little bummed at my apparent bad luck.

Great Q! Sadly answer is that they are not tax deductible because the company (Tickets for Charity) is a FOR Profit and is only the middle man between the charities and the artists. This is stated in their FAQ
